I have to ask, what year is the game set in? It just doesn't have that modern vibe, you know? With the forums and the CD's, it feels like it's set in the 90's or 80's.
Band Management Sim, with romance! · By
all new songs are suddenly listed as untitled is there anything I can do to fix that? same with a lot of the songs and albums on the top charts. might only be on that file tho. ill see what happens if i nake a new one. also i ussually don't point out typos since i always make them but there was one really important typo thata completely changes the meaning of the sentence. idk maybe it's n ot a typo. but when talking about dallas and sterling natasha says to robin "you love sterling." present tense. as if she is still in love with sterling. unless that's what she meant. i was just really confused by that. and idk if its an all the time thing but when i got hte scene where sebastian finds out robin is with wizz that when seth talk it has his name as sterling
i just did a run with beau and i h ad seth in the band. when he talked it still said sterling so i think that might be a continous thing. speaking of that does beau know seth slept with robin because he was definitely not happy to see him lol
Hey!
So, I just bought and downloaded the game, but I cannot seem to load it...
I have modified the security parameters as usual, to authorise my Mac to open it. I have tried to download it 3 times, but it still does not work...
Any idea on how I can fix that problem? I am on Mac OS Sierra 10.12.5.
Thanks in advance for your help!
Great! Let me know what you need to me to do, and I will do my best. My email addresses are krisjfern@comcast.net and krisjfern@gmail.com either one is fine to use. I also have accounts with Dropbox, OneDrive, Google Drive, if you'd rather upload/dl stuff rather than email. ( I use both Word and Scrivener for my writing and their files can be uploaded to most of those accounts) I'd also be happy to send you my cell # if you would like to brainstorm via text. You can also DM me on Twitter @KrisJFern. :)
Welllll ... they haven't been released yet, but yes! There has been work done. :) For example, thanks to everyone's support, I was able to find the original artist again and commission missing sprites that will be important for Open Ended Mode. But those characters are also in Story Mode, so they'll have sprites there, too! And I'm thinking about writing extra content/re-scripting scenes so that you can see them now.
For example, here's Tracy (for Owen's route), Sophia (for Beau's route) and Tiffany (for Marcus/Emmitt's route):
They're still a work in progress, but here you go! :)
Hi,
I just love love your game, thank you so much for making it. I think I'm in love with Beau (Side question how is is full name pronounced?), oh and how do I unlock Faust?, just to unlock him I finished Dallas's route even whilst feeling like I was cheating on my Beau. oh and is there a cheat menu that I can access? if so then please tell me how.
Anways thank you so so much for the game, please keep up the good work.
Thank you so much, I did think it was pronounced like that when Robin said it rhymes with I-am-hard. Oh and about Faust, even though I finished Dallas's route,he's the only one from that route that doesn't appear in my the hiring section of the open ended bands even after I tried making three separate bands. oh and about the cheat menu, where can I find the codes?
Sorry to bother you with so many questions even though the game is so good. even after I'm finished I keep on playing it in open-ended mode even when there isn't really anything happening. Thank you so much for making such an awesome game, really, thanks!
Haha, I forgot Robin said that. xD Faust has 3 scenes in Story Mode that you need to see. They're outlined in the walkthrough in the top level of the game's folder. Essentially, see the bachelorette party, and then see him twice while shopping at the music store. If the prompt "Faust unlocked for open mode!" comes up, he's unlocked.
The cheat codes are included with the premium content, but you can email me for them at: maselphie AT gmail
There's a cheat to unlock everybody in open mode so that could fix that problem, too. Thanks for enjoying the game!
Really?! thank you sooooo much, oh and btw is Seth out? because with I was rewatching Beau's break up scene in memorabilia and I saw that Seth was an option. Other than in that break up scene, in all the other ones Beau is such a sweetheart, Ah you've ruined the world for me now, there is no such perfect man, he's just such a gentleman. Sorry I keep rambling on I just love the game so much. thanks so much for making it, oh and one last question, promise, How come I am unable to unlock all of Beau's scenes? I have three scenes that I have still not been able to unlock and it is driving me nuts. I am so so so sorry for constently bothering you with so many questions.
Hello! Really enjoying the game thus far--blasted through Beau's route on Story Mode and now playing through Open Mode. It seems like not all of the available characters/routes unlock just by playing through one route, and I don't think it's included in the walkthrough. Is there a list somewhere of which routes/modes unlock which characters? Thanks so much!
Edit: I think there may also be a glitch with song recording in Open Mode? During the recording process, I can see the song gaining in popularity, but then the final screen shows popularity of -1 -> -1 or -99 > -99. Both times this has happened has been when I recorded "Classic" songs.
Edit 2: Another likely (very minor) glitch-- after signing to Piccolo, I noticed that in the expenses report it deducts the label cut, but says 0% rather than 75% in brackets as it should be.
Amazing, thank you for the link!! I must admit, I've been actively avoiding Dallas's route since I know it's going to be even more heartbreaking (and I totally already got all the feels and cried during Beau's route, even though his is supposed to be lighter). Looks like I have to do it though, since I'm excited to meet Faust and Jammy particularly. If I go back and start a new Story Mode game, will the characters unlock in the Open Mode game I'm currently playing? Or will I need to start a new Open Mode game before I can access those new characters?
Also, two things: 1) I was wondering if you could clarify since I'm still not 100% sure after two playthroughs lol-- does "hiring a producer" for song recording actually do anything to the quality/popularity of the song, or is it just to cut down on the time it takes for recording?
2) Any chance you'd be looking for additional writers for your dev team? Playing the game and the freedom of the band management aspect definitely got my creative juices flowing!
First things First. It is a awesome game. I got totally hooked and played the game the last two days non stop.
Second. I found an Typo in the forum post "Robin isn't slacking of, is she?"
there is written "if you are in a bad" schoud it not mean "if you are in a band"?
Third. I don't know why but in "story Mode" always my third Song List page disappears when I put songs from there in a Single or Album and want to use them in a gig and show back up when I start the forth song page, they also disappear choosing songs for a single or an album during this time but are seen in the song list.
Fourth. If I hire Marcus with a Guitar there always come's this mistake when in a gig.
I'm sorry, but an uncaught exception occurred.

Hello guys! Is anyone still working on this game?
Anyway, I'd just like to congratulate everyone who has worked on it so far! It's amazing! I've been playing it for 3 days straight now and I absolutely love it! It's such a breath of fresh air to have a protagonist who actually has a personality! (although Robin's might be a little too much at times... haha - but I still love her <3 ) I've laughed and cried with this game and I'm so grateful that you all have put in so much effort to make this game, thank you all wonderful people! <3 I feel like I've found a real gem here.
That being said, I've found some error bugs and weird french grammar on this game and I wonder if I should post them here?
So I know you're still working on the game and just busy rn, but any chance we can get a tiiiiny hint on the rest of the epilogues? Or really anything to tide us over >.< basically crazy about Beau but it looks like they're in a really rocky place when the epilogue preview ends :(
also THANK YOU for making this! I'm a decent writer and would be down to help you read over/edit any writing if that'd be helpful!
Hello! I'm back! Just realized I forgot to mention something on my first post.
I'm not sure if this one is a bug or I'm the one who's doing something wrong, but I just don't seem to be able to make it into the singles chart! I even released a 4.5 stars single ( with two 5 stars song - but somehow the single ended up being 4.5 stars, which is fine, I'm not complaining...) and I'm max popularity and still not charting... :'(
I don't have a problem with the albums chart though, I'm always topping it.
